Why not just take the renderers from the platform specific projects in Git?

@ClintStLaurent There isn't a nuget package for this project unfortunately. I put it up mainly for tutorial purposes. Like @lpdavies mentioned, you could easily use the renderer implementations from the platform projects

@lpdavies@ShrutiNambiar
Agreed that one can just grab the files. And that's what I did for testing. But...
That doesn't resolve UWP dependencies in that platform's renderer and doesn't make use of the established mechanism (Nuget) for getting notifications of updates.

Personally I think its a great little control. Handles a specific need with almost no overhead. Its a shame nobody sees it when they search via Visual Studio Nuget package manager, which how a large percentage of add-ons/packages are found these days.

I just thought it would be nice if it got a little more exposure, took care of its own dependencies, and didn't have to manually re-visit the site once a month to see if there are updates.

I have this is a shared PageHeader control that shows a unique icon for each feature page (IE: Tile as seen i the XAML).
Each tile has its own color and the TintedImage handles the alpha aspect without having to create a second color property of the alpha version. So...
Load the blue page, the header icon is tinted the color for that page from the VM.
Load the red page, the header icon is tinted to match.
No fuss, no muss.

If you use transformation in XAML-only. Please add var ignore = new TintTransformation(); in you platform specific project (so the linker will not remove the assembly)

I would like to use this but once i set the tint, is there no way to change it? When i try to change it nothing happens. I try clearing the transformations then creating a new one and adding it to my image but it just stays as the first tint applied. I am using the latest pre-release 2.2.10-pre413

Where can I suggest this bad boy as a feature request to add to the official Xamarin.Forms Image? It makes me miss Windows UWP BitmapIcon which had this built-in as the Foreground property.

"this" - what? Which part of all that? TintedImage? Just use the NuGet for tinted image.

Sorry, my "this" was a bit vague. Yes, the TintedImage NuGet is great as is, but I think this would be a very useful feature that could be built into the official Xamarin.Forms Image itself. Why? Because Xamarin Live Player and Gorilla Player (and other previewers out there) play best with built-in properties and, more importantly... I'm a lazy bastard.
